You will be fine, if she wants to go out with you means that she already enjoys spending time with you.

Yeah thanks. Date went well, at least for me it did. We got at the place like 20 minutes early and slowly talked and ate for about a hour and a half before she had to leave for work. She told me she was kinda weirded out by the sushi I ordered, cause I ordered sashimi and not just the "normal safe stuff" but We just laughed it off. I had fun and I think she did as well. Hopefully I get a 2nd date with her.

Also bought on PSN Dead Rising 4 Frank's Big Package. It was like $12. Some Reptisafe(makes tap water safe for my reptiles), baby formula for my niece.

I decided to restart up an aquarium I have, so I bought some nutrafin clear fast cause it's cloudy. I'm looking to get some micro fish like some Dwarf rasboras, Chili Rasboras or maybe just a nicer betta from a breeder.

Goodwill had a Sony Bravia 4K HDTV for $30. Guy brought it out of the back room and I just about grabbed it out of his hands before it hit the store floor. Not only was it an insane deal, it upgrades my dad's TV from 720p to 4K, so now he can watch 1960s Iranian movies in 240p...oh well!

"New" tv stand (new as in it somebody tossed it out)
Planning on adding a new avr later on when it goes on sale and reuse the old speakers
Old stand and setup is below vvv
This is one of my future goals actually. I'm pretty jelly of these kind of simple yet effective furnitures. Meanwhile my collection is still stuck in a closet until god knows when.

Also, newcomers:

It's purple and chibi and fun.
I bought some pretty darts to match.

But the graphic on the darts peels off and leaves a sticky residue so half of them will be for decoration only :glare:
The other half is clear so they're fine.

I though the little Narf SMG might be lonely so I was trawling the classifieds for its older brother, and found someone selling their collection at ridiculous prices and... long story short...

Okay it was "only" the three on the left... But still.

Was given a msi gt72 2qd gaming laptop from 2014. It's a big upgrade from my 2007 mackbook. It needs a battery replacement and should be fine for lighter gaming.
Also was asked by a friend to reinstall windows on his samsun galaxy book s but I can't get past the windows language install screen. It just freezes and I can't click next

Welp, ordered a Pico Neo 3 Link on Tuesday and received it on Wednesday.
Pretty good tbh.

Still getting used to it and some games do make me a bit nauseous.

I didn't want to buy a new $200 Android phone/tablet just to keep important apps running securely so I bought an Acer Chromebook (4GB/64GB SSD/15") which turned out a lot cheaper.

Android phones/tablets should get security updates for years and years to come than force customers to buy a new one if they want it with security updates. 😐 There's nothing wrong with the device most of the time other than it "expired."

So I bought a bunch more pops(again) this week. This time I bought Ichigo with blade( his bankai form), Naruto Six Path Sage mode GITD, GITD Frist Form Cell from DBZ, Venomized DareDevil, Venomized Miles Morales, Kakashi Raikiri GITD from naruto, Tobi also from naruto and Jin Sakai from Ghost of tsushima.

Also bought a new backpack for work cause my other one was ripped pretty badly by the zipper.

The Jin Sakai pop is being replaced cause it came damaged. It was from amazon.
Also bought 4x 11x14 inch legacy art prints from Dominic Glover on Instagram.


Will post pictures when they come.

Went to a car boot sale which is nothing unusual. Did see some N64 games which was unusual in current space year (I can't remember the last time I saw them randomly for sale and not on some dedicated stall) but skipped those as it was nothing special and I don't need shells. Got a nice copy of red dead redemption 2 for PS4 for £4. Usual tools but just as I was leaving (literally the last stall) this gets put on the table

im3_pantograph_0.JPG
im3_pantograph.JPG

£10 he wanted for it and £10 he got. It is a somewhat obsolete device called a pantograph and works by tracing something on the front plate and then it shrinks it down to go in the middle section, and in some ways what people would have used in the days before CNC machines. Gravotech IM3 is the modern version, they go for considerably more than £10 though older versions also go for more than that.
Normally they would have a motor but that stylus is replaceable and very fixed (as in there a flat and grub screw to stop it from turning) so I don't know if this is intended as a drag one (some fine jewellery and glass will do that) or something else entirely.
Going to need a new stylus, and will probably make something to instead run a little flexible rotatory shaft thing inside it. Don't have any of the letters either but they are not so hard to make/pick up and I will probably be doing shapes anyway.
Videos of someone using similar ones



I had not ever expected to see one of these at a car boot sale, never mind within my fun stuff money range. Most happy (read absolutely buzzing) I went this morning though.
